Heal your Digestive Tract with Nutrients and Herbs

Dietary changes including increasing greens and vegetables, fiber, and water, eating smaller meals, and not eating for several hours before bedtime, can help.

Healing herbs can too. Try licorice (the DGL form avoids side effects and drug interactions), slippery elm, or marshmallow root to relieve symptoms.

In almost all cases, digestive herbs work better if you taste them. Opt for teas, liquid extracts, cordials and elixirs, powders, or adding herbs to food. You may notice immediate improvements, but give yourself two months for the effects to build.
